Synthesis and anti-inflammatory activity of some new 4-nitro-2-phenoxymethane sulphonanilide derivatives

Abstract

A series of Schiff’s bases i.e., N-(4-(benzylideneamino)-2-phenoxyphenyl)-4-methylbenzene-sulfonamide were synthesized from Nimesulide and studied for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Hydrolysis of Nimesulide with sulphuric acid led to the formation 1 which on further reaction with benzene sulphonyl chloride yielded the title compounds 2. Compounds… (More)
